Diop Traded To Bobcats For Carroll And Hollins

The Dallas Mavericks announced today that they acquired guard Matt Carroll and center Ryan Hollins from the Charlotte Bobcats in exchange for center DeSagana Diop. “We are excited to add two young talents in Matt and Ryan to our roster,” said General Manager/President of Basketball Operations Donnie Nelson. “Over the course of his career, Matt Carroll has one of the best 3-point shooters in the league. Ryan is a versatile athletic center with a good up-side.” “We want to thank Sagana,” said Nelson. “He is hands down one of the classiest people I have ever known. His contributions both on and off the court will certainly be missed. The Mavericks’ family wishes him nothing but the very best.”

That was a bad trade on the Bobcats point of view. Matt Carroll can be a dead-eye shooter...sometimes he reminds me of Steve Kerr bad in the day. Ryan Hollins can possibly be a moderate player one day. Diop is not bad but he's not what they need in my eyes. They need what Denver stole from us.
